I am thinning out my collection ... as my longevity is reducing.
This time a precious set of ammunition from the Renaissance period. 1 - A ceramic grenade from the thirty years war, one of a hoard found in the Ingolstadt Gothic New Castle walls, during works for an underground parking.The genuine fuse is kept apart, due to its fragility. Diameter 14 cms. weight 2 700 grams. 2 - A wrought iron cannonball hand made circa 1490 in the workshops of Peter Pögl, from Thörl near Insbruck, one of lots ordered King Maximilian. Diameter 7 cms. weight 1 400 grams. 3 - A cannonbal forged in 1575, made of iron slag, in the facilities of Duke Julius of Brunswick (HERZOG JULIUS HÜTTE), which initials and date are marked in its sides. Diameter 94 mm. weight 2 056 grams. Furter written work, pictures and evidence may be supplied when of interest. Asking for the set 650 Euros. fernandomgviana@gmail.com .
